You need to increase pHaystack and decrease hstkSize. I'd do it before calling the function.

Thanks.

I'm a bit surprised though; I didn't know we could mess with pointer addresses like that -- could there be some side effects on 32/64-bit due to A_PtrSize?

Nope, A_PtrSize has nothing to do with this.

A_PtrSize is important when you are executing machine code.
For example, I would allocate memory once and place many mcode functions in it.
But each function should start at an offset that is divisible by A_PtrSize
Math isn't very hard because

starting memory pointer will always be divisible by A_PtrSize.

Code: Select all

Somevar := "hello"
MsgBox % Mod(&SomeVar, A_PtrSize)
